[[Most scientists have a hard time accepting ID because it is religion masquerading as pseudo-science hoping to be mistaken for junk science]]
Since you’re a little confused on the issue (for hte umpteenth time) let’s go over definitions once again (once again for the umpteenth time)
“” Intelligent design” is a theory of the origins of life that suggests that intelligent causes best explain the origin of living systems and their features. The theory is based on the empirically-testable assumption that systems which exhibit high-information content are more likely the result of an intelligent design rather than undirected natural causes. Simply put in lay terms, living things are too complex to have happened by chance and there was likely some intelligent cause involved in their origins...
” Religion” on the other hand has been variously defined. The U.S. Supreme Court said in the late 1800’s that “the term ‘religion’ has reference to one’s views of his relations to his Creator, and to the obligations they impose of reverence for his being and character, and of obedience to his will.” Davis v. Beason, 133 U.S. 333, 342 (1890)...
It should be apparent that “intelligent design” does not meet any of these definitions of “religion.” Intelligent design says nothing about whether a person has or should have a relationship with a creator (if there is one), and says nothing about whether there are or should be any obligations or duties owed to a creator (if there is one). Nor does intelligent design require belief in, reverence for, or worship of a supernatural power. Intelligent design does not suggest that the intelligent is a supernatural intelligent cause. Intelligent design simply says nothing of whether the intelligent cause is a supernatural or non-supernatural intelligent cause. Furthermore, intelligent design does not suggest that all else in life is subordinate to it as a theory of origins or is ultimately dependent on it...
Intelligent design has no liturgy or form of public worship, no clergy or people ordained for religious service, no observance of religious holidays, no sacred text, and no churches or other religious institutions. Intelligent design, unlike religion, takes no position on the existence of God or gods, does not require belief in God or gods, takes no position on any theory of morality or code of ethics, presents no opinion as to an afterlife, and holds no opinion on the ultimate meaning of life or the universe” http://www.intelligentdesignnetwork.org/E%20Richardson%20is%20ID%20religion.htm
Tell us again how ID is nothign but a religion-
[“” Intelligent design” is a theory of the origins of life that suggests.....]
Ooooohhh he's gona' be mad!
You should have said hypothesis.
(The evidence for ID does not reach the level of theory in his mind.)
Its not nice to talk about someone without pinging them, is it...
